Hey everyone, Papergirl Bristol has just opened they're 2016 Open Call for artwork that will be exhibited and distributed for free! Email papergirlbristol@gmail.com for the address to send your prints etc to, or message me on here! We're hoping to create a zine like we did last year :)

Hello you! The first issue of my zine called BlackEye Magazine will be published soon. Every issue will feature an artist of a different area. The first one is all about the Berlin tattooer Chaim Machlev. I hope you have time to step by on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/blackeyemagazineHave a nice day!Hanna

@ Kay- if you'd like to start a discussion use the forums! It's easier to keep all the conversation in one place per topic. @Tim- zine looks really good visually and sounds like it has awesome and thoughtful content

I'm posting this here because it's my first zine in EIGHT YEARS!!! Been working on this for months and am very happy with how it turned out, so I hope you'll all give it a look.

Here's the description from Etsy....

Some Notes on Film, Vol. 1

Debut issue! Eight essays on various films and on film, filmmaking, and art in general. Features original illustrations as well as film stills.

I started Some Notes on Film as a way of encouraging myself to articulate my free floating thoughts about the films I watch. Instead of writing reviews, I try burrowing into specifics: particular themes, motifs, aesthetic choices. I’m writing from the perspective of a filmmaker, and so the observations I make are usually somehow related to me thinking through my own practice.

Topics for this issue include: - Steve Martin's goofy tenderness in The Jerk - Josh Safdie's microbudget indie The Pleasure of Being Robbed (as seen on the cover) - Brian Eno's idea of art as a "trigger for experience" (and why I don't like it) - Robert Altman's The Long Goodbye and Renaissance painter Pieter Bruegel - Ain't Them Bodies Saints compared to Terrence Malick's Badlands - Billy Wilder's The Apartment and physicality in screenwriting - the difficulty of portraying digital life in movies - plus a lengthy intro essay on the differences between zines and blogs
